Stay in Aomori's mountains this spring

This time, I stayed at Hoshino after hiking in Oirase.
It swept away my previous impression of Hoshino in Hakone.
I have to say, if you also want to hike/play in Oirase Stream, Hoshino is still a good option.

Unlimited apple juice, apple cider, and sake in the hotel lobby in the afternoon.
There are also rich activities linked to the local culture (moss ball making, stream morning stretching exercises, Oirase Stream interpretation).
The buffet has all kinds of apple-related foods.
There is a bus departing from the hotel to Oirase every hour.
The hotel also has electric-assisted bicycles and rain boots for rent.
The entire local cultural experience is very well done.

After the hike, soak in the hot spring while listening to the spring water and watching the sunset.
